Thank you for all the suggestions so far. I still don't know what the problem is, but many of you think I might be overwatering, so I will try your suggestions on watering. I do have a moisture meter that I use, which helps a lot, but I guess I probably do tend to overwater.

Garden Knowm? Where are you???

its probally that they dont get fresh air. Plants release gases out of the stoma on their leaves, over a while ( about 3 weeks) in being in a box with no fresh air they will probally die. I really think this could be your problem having a fan will not help the situation much just blow the air around. if this is not your problem im am seriously going over to your house and growing your plants haha this makes me sad :( :p

Exactly... fresh air would be good.

Again, not a fan moving air around... no... actually *fresh* air.

Thanks Sand M4n and turtle,

Fresh Air... I would like to try it, but I would have to be lugging pots downstairs and outside to get anything fresh. :-( They do have air conditioning coming into the room, is that good?

Maybe the air is it. Thanks for your suggestion. And come on over anytime, I have a guest room. You could stay for the 3-4 months a crop would take!

The soil looks a little .. interesting...
Can't really change that now. Let them dry out a bit, don't keep them moist 24/7

Any air exchange in there? Or atleast the breeze of a fan?

Well, they are looking sicker and sicker now. I've tried all the suggestions. They are not going to make it. Time for everyone to smoke a bowl in memory of them...
